Afcon 2019: Unfancied South Africa should play without fear against Egypt - Dylan Kerr

Former Black Leopards head coach Dylan Kerr has urged South Africa to play without any fear against Egypt on Saturday.

Bafana Bafana are scheduled to face the Pharaohs in a 2019 Africa Cup of Nations Round of 16 encounter at the Cairo International Stadium in Egypt.

South Africa scraped through to the knockout phase as one of the four best third-placed teams despite having struggled in Group D, recording two defeats and one win.

"South Africa have underperformed at that level of expectations," Kerr told Goal.
